Really touching poem. I used to read your blog. U writes so well. I came here after a long time and I am just speechless after reading this. Thank you. I am leaving Mumbai on few days. Can I copy paste your poem for my Facebook status. It resembles with my Mumbai memories so want to update my Facebook status with your poem.

Hi Praful!
Yes of course you can use the poem as your status. All I ask is please link it to my blog (I mean please add this link to your status message, and it would be nice if you could post the link of your status message as a comment here too), just so that I can connect with more people through my blog.🙂
Thanks for visiting again and good luck with the move! Leaving a place where you have lived is tough and forgetting it almost impossible. I am glad you could connect with the poem.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts Vani.
“Reading your verse was like reading Gulzar” – I am not sure how to react to that. Its a mixed feeling – like the happiness that comes with the an appreciation and the fear that comes with an expectation. Well let me just stop with a “heartfelt” thank you.

Kamaal ka likhte ho aap! This was so touching and packed such an emotional wallop…took me to places and smells and sounds and sights…and feelings and sensations…damn you!! Now the rest of my day will be spent in a reverie🙂

We plan to do poetry readings at the store/cafe I mentioned in the comments thread of another post…would love to have you as a guest where you can narrate your poems. And I flatter you not, when I say, you should think of publishing these!! I for one, will buy a copy.

I would love to attend the poetry readings, but well the narration part🙂 I have read these poems aloud to myself but have never had an audience before, will have to see how to go about that. But do keep me in the loop.
